The win rate for P on Radeon is similar to what it is on Polypoid, with a reverse from PvZ to PvT: - Polypoid: 46.9% PvZ - 48.2% PvT - Radeon: 48.6% PvZ - 46.6% PvT But what it seems to fix is TvZ, from 56.4% on Polypoid to 52.6% for Radeon. Once again it agrees to the notion that concept maps are all Terran maps (positive win rate in both matchups) but at least in this case it reduces that advantage to around 52-53% (imo anything from 55% is unacceptable)/ | ||

The games Terran played in each matchup are almost identical too (1,882 games vs Zerg and 1,871 games vs Protoss). I wonder what the PvT challenges are on Radeon. | ||

It is not a good map by any means. + Show Spoiler + | ||

Koreans can even compete on OLED displays. They can relive the days of CRT glory and yet have perfect saturation which was the main issue with them. My screen has only the slightest dark to black oled lag. Things are different than they used to be. What else, I think we can omit this risk aversiveness to tile set. It is only the latest ASL that Soulkey lost the title on the most visible space installation tile set to Effort in almost perfect contrast between dark purple on light blue. He didn't notice the creep due to fog of war. Personally, it is just another feature of the game. Players may not notice units on the map, they may have to keep scouting on the mini map. It is just another level of map control skill to be ahead of the opponent. Let's not dumb down the game like something it is not. | ||

Note: I'm talking relative performance. Of course both players are some of the best BW has right now. I'm just not impressed with their current performance compared to what they have shown in the past. | ||

Good video on Snow’s biggest problem. Tldw: Snow’s specialty is pure reaver micro but it doesn’t work well vs Zerg and his optimisation is poor. Alot of Protoss like to complain about PvZ balance but this series just ain’t it. | ||

You are literally putting %50 of the map pool in the party who doesn't know radeon is antiprotoss map. Even without my contribution, you'd have tipped pvt and that would tip the scales for other matchups, too. Don't mention me in the same sentence with noobs. | ||
